i heart dresses

Found some stunning steals on Asos.com today. If you haven't visited this website you need to! It is a British based online clothing store. I'm telling you, they have some amazing finds. There is something exciting about purchasing something you can't get in a store in SA.



   These are my picks. I'll have one of each in my size thank you :)

milk bottle measuring cups


Love these milk bottle measuring cups from Anthropologie! Wonderfully beautiful inside and out, and they’re stackable making them the prettiest space saver ever!

HAPPY FRIDAY ALL!
I am very excited for the weekend I have ahead.
Tomorrow one of my very special friends, Jenna is getting married (I am one of her bridesmaids- excitement!) Tonight us girls are having a girly sleepover- takeout, (one) bottle of champers, choccies, pre wedding pampering and the DVD "Bridesmaids" which I have heard is an absolute hoot! I love weddings and I know this one is going to be a BIG party- lots of champers, dancing and celebration.
So here's to the future Mr and Mrs Everitt!

PS: Dont you LOVE this poster- Def going to have it printed & framed to put up in my future bar/ entertainment area.

blushing*

 If you looking for a blusher that leaves your cheeks kissably sweet, the Benefit CORALista Blush is by far the best there is (in my opinion). 
 Being a 'Mac only' girl it took allot for me to try another make up brand but after much umming and aahing I have & let me tell you Benefits range of makeup is just divine! I mean it is part of Louis Vuitton so of course it would be right!? One of the products I absolutely adore is the CORALista Blush.
I have very fair skin and after applying the blush, I instantly have a soft pink glow to my cheeks. The best part is, coral is one of those colors that looks universally flattering on any skin tone. It adds a subtle sparkle when you apply it to your cheekbones & it smells amazing too!*

"Life, I really believe, is about falling in love. With ideas, with stories, with experiences, mistakes, adventures, poetry, imaginations, old books, new books, movies, music, and, of course, people. Everything that is worthwhile in this world is worth falling in love with, and I can’t imagine a better way to live one’s life than to be always head over heels." - unknown
